The messages look way worse than the situation. The problem is that adding brltty to the initrd requires more space than has been allocated within the initrd. rhmkiso knows how to deal with it, though, and corrects for the problem. All you need to ensure is that rhmkiso exits with a return code of 0. If it does then the image is fine. Later installers, e.g. FC6 and F7, use cpio rather than a gzipped ext2 file system so they don't have the problem. Perhaps later RHEL installers use cpio as well. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
